Chapter 169: Searching for the treasure with all your might
Gu Zhenhai rushed back in a hurry, it was nothing more than because of Gu Junjun's disappearance, with the efficiency of Changle Palace and Gu Zhenhai's status in Donglan Kingdom, it should not be difficult to find out about this matter.
"Nope." Talking about this, Qingcheng's face suddenly became solemn, "At present, I only know that Concubine Yu was kidnapped out of the palace, but I don't know who did it." ”
"Taken captive? That should still be alive. Gu Wanwan comforted Qingcheng, and also comforted herself by the way.
In fact, she knew very well in her heart that if Gu Junjun was really kidnapped, the person who kidnapped her must be for the Tianshan Ice Silkworm, and she would definitely use all kinds of means to force her to tell her the whereabouts of the Tianshan Ice Silkworm, if she didn't say it, it would definitely be worse than death, but if she said it, it was not far from death.
"I hope so." Qingcheng sighed faintly, "Master is really exhausted for this, if Concubine Jun really has an accident, I'm afraid that Master will be even more difficult to let go." ”
"Senior brother, dad is the closest to you on weekdays, you have to persuade him to want to open it." When something like this happens, she really doesn't know what to say.
Qingcheng is Gu Zhenhai's most important apprentice, if something really happens to Gu Zhenjun, he has to rely on Qingcheng to relieve him.
"Senior sister, don't worry, I know what to do." Qingcheng nodded in response.
Under Bai Yumei's Zhang Luo, Gu Wanwan ate a rich meal that she hadn't seen for a long time, thinking that since she left Yanwang's Mansion, she hadn't eaten such a rich and delicious dish for a long time.
It seems that Bai Yumei's flattery for her is not ordinary, and she has really worked hard to leave a good impression in her heart. not only personally served the vegetables for Gu Wanwan, but also said all the good things.
Not only that, but even the people in the house were respectful to her, and they would rush over to salute when they saw it from afar, which made Gu Wanwan really feel unaccustomed.
"Senior brother, do you think they are strange?" When there were only two of them, Gu Wanwan frowned and asked.
"What's wrong? As a princess, you should accept such a courtesy. Bai Wutong knew that she was not used to it, so he smiled and persuaded her, "Stay a few more days, and the princess will get used to it." ”
"No, I don't think their transformation just came from being a princess." Gu Wanwan frowned, shook his head and said.
"Why does the princess say that?" Bai Wutong looked at her puzzled.
"You think, even if Gu Qianjun is missing, there is still Gu Qianxian who is the queen in the palace. As the queen's biological mother, why does Bai Yumei have to come to please me? I'm just a princess in name only. ”
According to Bai Yumei's character, she will definitely compare her daughter with her, in such a comparison, where can she compare to Gu Xianxian's current status?
Since she is an incomparable person, why should Bai Yumei restrain her arrogant and domineering attitude and speak to her in a low voice? She really couldn't figure this out.
"This ...... Wei Chen couldn't explain it, maybe the Bai family had to treat you politely to the princess because of Gu Zhenhai's face. Bai Wutong guessed.
"Will it?" This is even more of a question in her heart, when Bai Yumei bullied her in the past, Gu Zhenhai ignored her, will she really let Bai Yumei treat her well?
But other than that, she really couldn't think of the reason for Bai Yumei's transformation.
"Forget it, I don't want to, there is a way to be safe!" Being overly suspicious is not her character, no matter whether others are sincere or fake to her, she will see her true face one day.
"The princess is right." Anyway, as long as the people of the Prime Minister's Mansion treat the princess well, and the princess can live here with peace of mind, he is happy in his heart.
"But now that Gu Junjun is missing, all Gu Zhenhai's manpower should be focused on finding Gu Junjun, if we want to get the Tianshan Ice Silkworm quickly, we have to put in some effort ourselves." Gu Wanwan is colorful.
Even if the prime minister's house is now very good and lives a comfortable life, she must not forget the purpose of her visit.
She didn't come to enjoy the respect and care of others, she came for the Tianshan Ice Silkworm.
"The princess is right, her subordinates will immediately contact Zhang Han and ask him to order someone to find out the whereabouts of the ice silkworm." Bai Wutong also felt that this matter could not wait.
Waiting is not always a good thing to enjoy, and many times it is a first-to-take experience.
When I saw Gu Zhenhai, it was three days after entering the mansion, and I heard that he had just come back from outside, and Gu Wanwan felt that she should go and say hello to him.
After seeing Gu Wanwan, Gu Zhenhai's cold face softened slightly: "It's good to come back, stay in peace, and Dad will arrange other things." ”
Hearing this, it was hard to hide his concern for Gu Wanwan, and it seemed that this adoptive father still regarded her as a daughter. Thinking of this, Gu Wanwan's heart welled up with some emotion.
"Yes, Dad, you have to pay more attention to your body, you have lost weight." Not only has he lost weight, but the gray hair on his forehead has increased even more.
Gu Zhenhai nodded, frowning slightly: "Didn't you come back with Lord Yan?" He heard about it on the way back, but Gu Wanwan and Bai Wutong came back, and Yan Wushuang was missing.
Gu Wanwan shook her head, and when she was asked about Yan Wushuang again, she really didn't know how to answer.
"Why is that?" Gu Zhenhai did not give up because of this, and continued to ask the questions in his heart.
"Because I don't agree with him, and his group is always delaying, I really want to come over quickly." Since Gu Zhenhai wanted to know, then she answered frankly, anyway, this is not a reason that people can't know.
Gu Zhenhai was stunned after hearing this, his face sank, and he said after a while: "How can this be?" Dad originally hoped that the two of you would join forces to get the Four Treasures together! ”
"It's not impossible without him! Don't worry, Dad, I'll find the treasure myself! "She doesn't need to rely on Yan Wushuang! What's so great about not him?
It's better without him, there's one less competitor!
"You...... Ay! Gu Zhenhai wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he finally turned into a sigh, waved his hand, and said, "Well, the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to investigate more." ”
"Qingcheng, you ordered all the disciples in the palace to obey Wanwan's orders, and let her dispatch them." Gu Zhenhai turned his head and said to Qingcheng on the side.
"Commanded in vain." Qingcheng replied respectfully.
Gu Wanwan was simply overjoyed: "Thank you, Dad, but ...... Dad, you better let the disciples in the palace go to find the eldest sister, there is no hurry about the treasure. ”
Although she was very happy that Gu Zhenhai was willing to send the disciples of Changle Palace to her for dispatch, at the moment when Gu Zhenjun's whereabouts were unknown, would it be too selfish for her to accept it calmly? After all, it is also very urgent to find Gu Junjun now.
"No, the matter of the treasure cannot be delayed, and no one else must be allowed to take the treasure." Gu Zhenhai's words were firm and could not be refuted.
Gu Wanwan wanted to say something more, but he spoke again: "I've already decided, don't say anything more." I'm tired too, so let's all step down! ”
Gu Zhenhai's face couldn't hide the look of exhaustion, maybe he hadn't rested for a long time, seeing him like this, Gu Wanwan didn't know that he should say more, and quickly retreated with everyone. But she always stared at her face and thought about it.
"Senior sister, you don't have to mind, this is what the master meant, and the master has thought it through." Seeing that she had been keeping her eyebrows low and silent, Qingcheng said with relief.
"But at such a moment, the search for the eldest sister cannot be delayed, and my father's heart is obviously very worried about the eldest sister." For his own daughter, who is a father who doesn't care? So she really couldn't figure it out, why did Gu Zhenhai hand over the disciples of Changle Palace to her to send, could it be that the search for treasures was really more important than his daughter's life?
But looking at Gu Zhenhai's appearance, he was sad that Gu Zhenhai's disappearance turned a lot of gray hair.
"Senior sister, you should know that my master and I have been here for a month, but there has been no whereabouts of Concubine Jun, and Concubine Guifei may have ......" Qingcheng stopped when he said this, and did not continue, but the meaning of his words was already very clear.
"You mean that Concubine Wei may have been killed, so Dad is discouraged?" It's normal to think like this, but before seeing Gu Junjun's body, you can't rashly conclude that she is really dead.
"Not exactly." Seeing that she still didn't understand, Qingcheng simply made her words clear and said, "If those people who kidnapped the concubine were really for the ice silkworm, then the ice silkworm might have fallen into the hands of others." So at present, it is very urgent to find the ice silkworm, in other words, finding the ice silkworm can also avenge the concubine! ”
"That's why Dad, he just said that?" Gu Wanwan suddenly realized that she finally understood Gu Zhenhai's good intentions.
If the daughter is really harmed, then as a father, he should avenge his daughter.
"Well, Master, he is really tired, so he entrusted the heavy responsibility to his junior sister." Qingcheng sighed, it was the first time he had seen his master look so tired today.
In the past, even though he was injured and bleeding, Master's eyes were still full of energy, not like today.
"But...... I haven't been deeply involved in the world, and I don't have much experience at all, so I'm afraid I'm going to live up to my father's high expectations. Gu Wanwan frowned worriedly.
The more Gu Zhenhai valued her, the heavier the burden on her shoulders, the more she was afraid that she would not be able to shoulder it.
Knowing that she had concerns in her heart, Qingcheng gently persuaded: "Senior sister, don't worry too much, senior brother and all the disciples of Changle Palace will fully support you!" ”
Gu Wanwan raised her eyes, looking at Shang Qingcheng's sincere gaze, her heart was warm, all the words of gratitude were in her heart, she believed that with everyone's help, she would definitely be able to get the ice silkworm before Yan Wushuang.
Anyway, why hasn't Yan Wushuang returned yet?
"Wei Chen went to Wushuang Building to investigate, but Yan Wushuang never showed up."
Not only Gu Wanwan, but Bai Wutong had always been worried about Yan Wushuang in his heart, so he didn't need to worry about Gu Wanwan's orders, he had already gone to Wushuang Building to investigate.
"Will he sneak back?" Gu Wanwan said as if talking to herself.
Recalling the many times he had been on the road before, Yan Wushuang could always follow them unnoticed, and then appear at a critical moment. Now, they have been in the imperial city for a few days, but they have not seen Yan Wushuang for a long time.
Did he delay his trip again because of his Jiang Yuqing, or had he already come to the Imperial City, but he just didn't show up?
