"Who said that if you know martial arts, you won't be starved to death? Princess, you're joking with Ling'er today! Ling'er was not shaken by Gu Wanwan's instigation, but smiled and blamed her.

"I'm not kidding you! What I said is true! "She was really angry with Ling'er's attitude!

"Then princess, tell Ling'er, how to eat with martial arts?" Ling'er asked her funny.

"Hey, I thought you were worried about something! Let me tell you, you still have a lot of places to go when you leave the Prime Minister's Mansion. You can be a bodyguard for others, or you can wander the world, robbing the rich and helping the poor...... Wait a minute! Gu Wanwan pointed to give an example.

In short, she will not feel that it is inevitable to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion, if she is not welcomed, she can leave, and there is a place to go.

"Is there any difference between that and being in the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Ling'er thought about it with her head, and didn't feel that what Gu Wanwan said had a yearning heart, "Wandering the world, Ling'er doesn't like it, robbing the rich and helping the poor, Ling'er can't do it, or come in the prime minister's mansion, and only serve the young lady every day, but there are tiles to cover your head, and you have three meals to eat." ”

"You're too easily satisfied, aren't you? So what are you doing when you learn martial arts? Ling'er refused her proposal without thinking about it, and Gu Wanwan inevitably felt disappointed. But after thinking about it, there are really not a few people like Ling'er in this world.

There are tiles to cover their heads, three meals to eat, not to mention the ancients, even modern people, and many people regard it as a dream. Many people like a simple life, and not many people like prosperity and freedom.

"Ling'er's reason for learning martial arts is actually the same as other slaves in the Prime Minister's Mansion." Ling'er replied with a smile.

Gu Wanwan was stunned when she heard it: "The same? By the way, why do the subordinates in the Prime Minister's Mansion know martial arts? "This matter is shelved in the palace, I'm afraid there is nothing, but in the prime minister's mansion, everyone knows martial arts. Why is that?

"Actually, we are all orphans, we were picked up by the master, at that time the master was not a prime minister, just a small official, and there were not many affairs, so he taught everyone to practice martial arts and defend themselves." Ling'er looked at the jumping candle flame and fell into memory, but there was a smile on the corner of her mouth.

It must have been a happy time, otherwise Ling'er wouldn't have smiled.

"So you're not willing to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion?" She only now understood the reason why Ling'er didn't want to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Yes, we all moved into the prime minister's house with my lord, and we have lived there for several years, and it feels like our own home." It was only in front of the princess that she dared to say this, and if it was someone else, she would not dare to say it.

"But you can't let the eldest lady bully you all the time!" Gu Wanwan frowned slightly, she could understand Ling'er's feelings for Xiangfu, but she really couldn't agree with Ling'er's character who was willing to be bullied.

"Actually, the eldest lady is not so terrible, the eldest lady is only angry with the slave when she is in a bad mood. If it weren't for the princess coming back, Ling'er wouldn't even see the face of the eldest lady! ”

Ling'er originally wanted to persuade Gu Wanwan to rest assured, but as soon as these words came out, her taste changed significantly. hurriedly explained: "Princess, Ling'er didn't mean that! Ling'er didn't feel affected by the princess, Ling'er didn't think so, the princess ......"

The more Ling'er explained, the more she found that she was panicked, and she didn't speak even more inappropriately, she wanted to shut up, but she felt that she didn't explain clearly, and she didn't want the princess to misunderstand, so she frowned tightly.

"Alright, alright! I'm not mistaken, don't explain. Gu Wanwan was amused by her appearance, and assured her, "I will try not to offend the eldest lady in the future, so that it will not involve you." ”

"Princess, Ling'er didn't mean that." Seeing that the princess still misunderstood, Ling'er suddenly flattened her mouth and was so anxious that she wanted to cry.

"I know you didn't mean that, I just want to change myself!" In fact, I really have to say that she hurt Ling'er. Just like Ling'er said, when she was not in the house, the eldest lady would not come to the door at all, so how could she be angry with Ling'er? In the final analysis, it was all because she offended the eldest lady, and Ling'er followed her to suffer.

It seems that in the future, in the house, you still have to keep a low profile!

Early the next morning, Gu Wanwan finally saw Bai Wutong, who had not been able to contact him for a long time. As soon as the two met, they kept greeting each other, which made Ling'er next to them laugh.

"Princess, Bai Gongzi, if you have something to say slowly, you all rush to ask like this, then who will answer?" Ling'er interrupted the two and kindly persuaded them.

"Ling'er is right, what are you fighting for?" Gu Wanwan also laughed, looking at the dusty Bai Wutong, "Don't be busy, hurry in and have a cup of tea." ”

Bai Wutong entered the house as he said, and Ling'er hurriedly stepped forward to pour tea for him: "Bai Gongzi, excuse me!" ”

Bai Wutong was really thirsty, and drank a cup of tea in one go, but he still maintained his usual elegance between his hands.

"Bai Gongzi, let's have another drink!" Seeing that he was thirsty like this, Ling'er poured another cup of tea.

"No need, Miss Ling'er, I can trouble you to avoid it, I have something I want to say to the princess alone." Bai Wutong waved his hand, looked at Ling'er and said softly.

"Okay." Glancing at Bai Wutong, Ling'er came back with some reluctance. Bai Gongzi rarely came back once, she really wanted to be by Bai Gongzi's side more and look at him more, but Bai Gongzi and the princess had important matters to discuss, and she couldn't bother beside her.

After Ling'er closed the door, Bai Wutong turned his head to look at Gu Wanwan and asked with concern, "Princess, are you injured?" ”

Looking at Bai Wutong's appearance, he knew that he must have heard that someone had attacked the Prime Minister's Mansion at night, so he hurried back.

"I'm fine, there are so many masters in the Prime Minister's Mansion! I didn't even make a move, and the enemy was driven away! Gu Wanwan shook her head and replied with a smile.

"How many masters are there in the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Repeating this, Bai Wutong said that he did not understand.

"yes, you didn't see that, did you? In fact, Ling'er is also a master! Fights and kills people even more than me. Gu Wanwan opened her mouth like a smile, but Bai Wutong was worried when she heard it.

"How so? Ling'er, she actually knows martial arts? "The days he has known Ling'er are really not short, but he didn't know that Ling'er could also do martial arts.

"Don't be nervous! It's not as serious as you think! Looking at his expression, Gu Wanwan knew that he had misunderstood.

Originally, she told Bai Wutong that the subordinates in the Prime Minister's Mansion knew martial arts, and she wanted to persuade him to rest assured that the environment she was in was very safe, but Bai Wutong obviously wanted to go to other aspects.

So Gu Wanwan explained to Bai Wutong that Ling'er and everyone in the house could do martial arts, so that he could dispel the doubts in his heart.

"Prime Minister Gu is indeed not an ordinary person." Bai Wutong sighed after hearing this.

"Are you saying that Dad deliberately adopted some orphans and taught them martial arts for his own use?" Gu Wanwan was not stupid, and suddenly heard the voiceover from Bai Wutong's words.

"Doesn't the princess think so?" Looking at Gu Wanwan's somewhat surprised expression, he shouldn't be able to believe that Gu Zhenhai was such a scheming person.

"It's supposed to be like this, I just didn't expect it yet." Gu Zhenhai had already explained before that he was incognito in Donglan Country for the sake of the Four Treasures, and for the sake of the Four Treasures, he could send Gu Junjun into the palace, and it was even more reasonable to train a group of capable assistants beside him.

As far as she saw that night, all the martial arts of the subordinates in the house are not weak, and they can all take charge of themselves and calmly respond to the enemy, which seems to be specially trained, not because they are not busy with official affairs, and they are casually taught to the subordinates for self-defense.

Ling'er was grateful to Gu Zhenhai, so she didn't tell the truth.

"Since you have been targeted, then princess, you should be careful when you enter and exit in the future, and it is best not to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion." Bai Wutong stared at Gu Wanwan's face and said in a solemn tone.

In fact, Gu Zhenhai trained such a group of martial arts subordinates, which is also a good thing for them, as long as the princess stays in the prime minister's mansion, then safety can be guaranteed.

"I'll pay attention!" Speaking of this, Gu Wanwan suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked, "Bai Wutong, you haven't encountered anything bad these days, right?" ”

Bai Wutong shook his head blankly, and said puzzledly: "Why does the princess ask like this?" ”

"A few days ago, there were some problems, I sent Ling'er to bring you a letter, I want to ask for your opinion. But the spirit bird went, and never returned. "Because the matter is not small, Gu Wanwan will not beat around the bush.

She had used the summoning technique several times, but Ling'er had not come back, if she hadn't learned from Gu Zhenhai that Bai Wutong was still safe, she was afraid that she would have already gone around looking for Bai Wutong.

"Is there such a thing?" Bai Wutong was surprised, "Hasn't the spirit bird come back yet?" ”

Gu Wanwan nodded and said, "I don't know if it's because my spiritual skills are not enough, I came back and summoned several times, but the spirit bird didn't come back." ”

"Let's give it a try." Bai Wutong twisted his eyebrows, put one hand on his chest, bent his index finger with the other, put it to his lips, and read the term softly, his voice was slow and short. But after a long time, there was no movement, and the spirit bird did not return.

Bai Wutong put down his hands, tightened his face, and looked out the window fixedly.

Gu Wanwan followed his example and looked out of the window motionlessly, but she never saw the spirit bird come back, she couldn't help but be curious, and said, "How is it?" Spirit bird it ......"

"I don't know, Weichen can't summon it back." Bai Wutong frowned, and his words were full of unwillingness.

"Maybe the spirit bird has gone too far to come back in time, maybe it's already on its way." Gu Wanwan comforted Bai Wutong, and she was also comforting herself with these words.

She actually knew very well that no matter whether the spirit bird had done anything to explain or not, it would definitely return to its master, and it would not stay far away from its owner alone.

Before Bai Wutong left, he had instructed the spirit bird to follow him well, and the spirit bird would definitely not leave her, unless it suffered some accidents.

"Maybe!" Bai Wutong replied with a heavy face, "Wechen will try again later!" "The spirit bird has been following him for years, and I really don't want to believe that the spirit bird just left him.

"Yes, maybe you get up and the spirit bird will come back?" Gu Wanwan hurriedly followed Bai Wutong's words, she could clearly feel Bai Wutong's tiredness, and she didn't want him to sleep well.

"If I wake up and the spirit bird never comes back, I'm afraid it will never come back."
