Chapter 025: The True Love of Tribulation
With his understanding of Yun Yao and his consistent intelligence and carefulness, Gu Qingming followed Yun Yao along the right path, and then found the rosewood hairpin he gave to Yun Yao in the garden at the back gate of Mrs. Min's bedroom.
He knew that this wooden hairpin was particularly important to Yun Yao, and if it wasn't for the last resort, he would definitely not leave it on the ground so casually. Since the hairpin is here, it means that Yun Yao must be nearby.
And at this time, two people walked not far away, holding lanterns in their hands, but they were bent on their waists, looking sneaky.
Gu Qingming hurriedly dodged and hid behind the rockery, planning to wait for the two of them to leave before continuing to look for Yun Yao, but it happened to reflect the light of the lantern, and he saw the face of the little bolt.
"Father-in-law, do you think the doctor girl will die?" asked the man next to him.
"Aren't you talking nonsense? Even if she doesn't die now, she will definitely die if she soak for a while. Have you forgotten how many people we threw in there? But no one ever came out alive. The little bolt said, and then seemed a little impatient, "Don't talk nonsense, let's go quickly, if you are seen, there will be many more incidents." ”
The person next to him stopped talking, and the two left here silently, slowly walking away, and the direction they went was exactly Ningkun Palace.
Gu Qingming carefully recalled Fang Cai's words and derived several useful key information from them.
The first is "bubble", only in the water, can it be called a bubble, that is to say, Yun Yao may have been thrown into the water by them; second, the people who were thrown into it by them must be more than Yun Yao, there were many before, and they didn't come out alive.
Thinking of this, Gu Qingming didn't hesitate any longer, followed the direction they had just come from, looked for it, and didn't go far before he saw a lake next to him, and there were bubbles on the lake, which looked like someone was breathing and spitting bubbles under the water.
Gu Qingming looked around and found that there was no one else at this time, the timing was just right, he performed light skills, like a dragonfly carrying water to the bubbling place, stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and grabbed a person's clothes.
With force, the person under the water was pulled up, and it was Yun Yao who was thrown down by a small bolt.
At this time, Yun Yao's face was pale, she had already drunk a lot of water, her closed eyes looked lifeless, and under the miserable white moonlight, it was shocking.
Gu Qingming took Yun Yao back to the shore, and before he could wake her up, he heard hurried footsteps nearby, and he was afraid of causing any accidents, so he immediately took Yun Yao out of here and returned to the small courtyard of Ningkun Palace.
And the next moment, this lake was surrounded by forbidden troops, and one of them commanded: "Search me carefully, I heard movement here just now, in case it is an assassin, it will be trouble!"
Gu Qingming returned to the room, took off Yun Yao's clothes in three or two, put her on the bed, and took a dry towel to wipe her body.
He can't take care of the defense of men and women, after all, the two have already been on a skin-to-skin relationship, and now is not the time to be hypocritical. What's more, Yun Yao at this time was just a patient in need of first aid in Gu Qingming's eyes.
Gu Qingming pressed Yun Yao's chest, asked her to spit out all the water she had drunk, and then pinched her nose and gave her mouth-to-mouth, and after repeating this many times, he woke Yun Yao up.
Yun Yao opened her eyes and saw Gu Qingming's worried face, she couldn't help but smile lightly, but her smile was so weak. In the blink of an eye, a gust of wind blew, and the cold touch on her body made her realize that she didn't even have an inch, not even a belly pocket.
In an instant, her originally pale face turned red, she curled up her hands to cover her important parts, and she was a little unable to face Gu Qingming for a while.
"A-Yao, you are already my person, why are you so shy?" Gu Qingming whispered softly, "I shouldn't have let you stay in the palace alone, something happened to you as soon as I left, if I didn't come back in time......"
"But didn't you come back in time? and saw the clues I left behind. Yun Yao said with a red face.
Gu Qingming sighed, pulled Yun Yao up from the bed, took a clean wrap for her to change into, and then used a dry towel to wipe her wet hair.
Yun Yao sat on the bed wearing only single clothes, and the sheets were also stained with some lake water, which was probably stained by Gu Qingming when she brought her back.
She only felt a pair of gentle hands caressing between her hair, gently, warmly, and beautifully, a little unreal.
"Now that you know that someone is going to work against you and leave me a clue, you shouldn't risk your life. Gu Qingming said, "It's not worth hurting your body, nothing is more important than you." ”
"I know, I won't do this again. Yun Yao also knew that she had misjudged this time, she thought that at least Mrs. Min would keep her or interrogate her origin, but she didn't expect that Mrs. Min would directly order her to be killed without asking anything.
However, the only thing that can be determined now is that what Gu Qingming found out is true, and she also heard the voice of that lady, at least when she negotiates and confronts tomorrow, she will not be mistaken.
The night was quiet, and no one knew that a sin had happened in the night, but it was prevented.
Yun Yao leaned peacefully into Gu Qingming's arms, enjoying him wiping her hair, and the slender and powerful fingers passed through her hair, making her suddenly feel very happy.
If this was not the strange Hao Palace, if it weren't for the fact that they still had a mission, she really wanted to live her life in peace.
I don't know how long it took, Yun Yao's waterfall and green silk were finally about to dry, and she had already fallen asleep in Gu Qingming's arms.
The night breeze was blowing, a little cool, and Yun Yao had just fallen into the water, Gu Qingming was afraid that she would catch the cold breeze, so he also took off his coat, hugged her in his underwear and lay on the bed, using his body to bring her a slight heat.
Perhaps the person he loved the most was by his side, and both of them fell asleep unknowingly, and slept peacefully.
Fortunately, nothing else happened this night, the people on Mrs. Min's side thought that Yun Yao was dead, and Qi Shuning's side also thought that Yun Yao was resting well, so the night was safe.
When it was almost dawn, Yun Yao opened her eyes as usual, and saw the person lying next to her, her face was slightly hot, and there was a trace of naughty thoughts in her heart.
She lay in the crook of Gu Qingming's arm, facing him, stretched out her fingers and gently swiped across his face, tracing his outline, from his eyebrows to his eyes, and finally gently touching his lips.
Since the sky was not yet bright and the light was not very good, Yun Yao looked very seriously, but she was also slightly distracted, and even Gu Qingming woke up and didn't find it.
"What are you thinking?" The doting voice sounded in her ears, crispy and numb, making Yun Yao couldn't help but tremble.
"I wonder if I could see you every day when I open my eyes. Yun Yao said as her hand left Gu Qingming's face, but he grabbed it.
"Yes. Gu Qingming said, "Maybe after today, everything will be different." ”
Yun Yao nodded slightly, and suddenly rolled her whole body into Gu Qingming's arms, hugged his waist, and hugged him tightly. I don't know why, she is a little greedy for the beauty of this time, because this is one of the few quiet times in her so many years.
Gu Qingming hugged her very tightly, and the two were close together, feeling each other's temperature and heartbeat, at the same frequency.
After a long time, Yun Yao left this warm embrace and said lightly: "It's time to get up, Yingquan will enter the palace today, and you have to ask Queen Hao to cooperate with what you should prepare." ”
Even if she was reluctant, Gu Qingming still let go of her, the two got up from the bed, got dressed separately, and faced the gradually brighter sky, but their hearts gradually became heavy.
I don't know why, Yun Yao always feels that something big is going to happen.
After she finished washing, while the palace people were still busy with their own affairs, she went directly to Qi Shuning, what she should say was already said yesterday, how to collect this net, Qi Shuning also knew in her heart.
Yun Yao did not tell Qi Shuning about the overboard incident that happened last night, but she asked Qi Shuning not to come forward for the time being, so as not to startle the grass and let Mrs. Min notice.
Based on her trust in Yun Yao, Qi Shuning nodded in agreement.
Soon, Xiao Shuzi was summoned to the dormitory, taking advantage of the fact that there were no extra people in the hall, Qi Shuning ordered him to be tied up, and sent a few reliable people to watch him, so he left the Ningkun Palace with confidence, asked King Hao for peace, and accompanied King Hao to breakfast by the way.
And Lu Yingquan's greeting post was sent in when they had breakfast.
Although King Hao has never heard that there is a queen in Yiguo, but the phoenix seal belonging to Queen Yi can't be faked, no matter what the identity of the person who came, she must have an inseparable relationship with Yiwang Palace.
And since the other party wrote a greeting post and had a thorough number of courtesies, he naturally had to treat each other with courtesy. Otherwise, if Yiguo gains power in the future, then his Hao country will become an egg that cannot be preserved under the nest, and it will be broken together.
"Invite people to the Sogo Hall secretly, remember not to let others find out, this king will receive it personally!" King Hao whispered to the people around him, and immediately asked people to withdraw the breakfast, and went to the main hall with Qi Shuning.
A short time later, a veiled woman, accompanied by a maidservant and a guard, led by the palace people, entered the Sogo Palace.
This woman is Lu Yingquan, and the two people who follow her are Sisi and Gu Chen, who turned darkness into light.
Lu Yingquan stretched out his hand and took off the gauze hat shrouded in front of him, revealing his original true face, with a smile on his beautiful face, even if he was wearing the most simple clothes, he couldn't take his eyes off.
"Lu Yingquan has seen His Royal Highness King Hao. Lu Yingquan saluted King Hao with palace salutes, then turned his head to look at Qi Shuning, and said with a smile, "Queen Niangniang, don't come to be harmed?
"Queen Yi, Lu Yingquan, this palace doesn't remember seeing you, so how can you say that you are fine?" Qi Shuning felt very puzzled, and didn't know what Lu Yingquan's intention was for coming this time.
Lu Yingquan smiled slightly, and asked Sisi to present the covenant that had already been drawn up with both hands, and then said: "Yingquan came this time to talk to Uncle Hao about the alliance, this is the covenant, please Uncle Hao Wang." ”
