She couldn't let the Seventh Prince see her like this, otherwise, the Seventh Prince would definitely worry about her.

Gu Yao wiped the cold water off her face, turned around and walked towards the bedroom.

The little maid looked at her back, a little confused.

What the hell is wrong with this young lady today?

Why do you look like you can't give up?

The little maid thought about it, and hurriedly threw the basin to the door and went back to the house to rest.

Gu Yao entered the room, saw that there was a pastry on the table, took a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, then put another piece on the plate and brought it to the bed.

She picked up the brush, dipped it in ink, and wrote a line on the paper.

"Brother Qi, I'm sorry, I know I've wronged you during this time, but, please forgive me for saying goodbye! I don't want to bother you, I know you've done a lot for me, but that's not something you should bear. You must know that you are the emperor and the most noble person in the world, you should not abandon your identity and your glory and wealth for such a humble woman as me, I am not worthy of you sacrificing so much for me! “

"I know that my status is lowly and I am not worthy of you, but please give each of us a way to live."

"I don't want to put you in danger again!"

"After this incident, I will disappear forever, and I will not come to the capital again, and I will not contact you again. Please forget me, forget me! “

After Gu Yao finished writing, he tore it to pieces vigorously.

She picked up a piece of paper and threw it out the window.

The paper fell into the dark night sky, turned into a pile of ashes, and gradually dissipated.

She didn't want to bother him!

It was the only thing she could do for him.

Gu Yao swept away the pastries on the table, pushed the tables and chairs into the courtyard, and then left the Seven Princes' Mansion.

......

It was getting darker and earlier, and the sky was full of stars.

The streets are deserted.

There are also far fewer street vendors.

Gu Yao shuttled through the bustling streets, looking up at the sky.

There was some irritability in her heart.

She knows her heart, but she doesn't want to cause unnecessary trouble to others because of herself.

That's why she chose to leave.

During this time, she has been living in guilt and guilt, and whenever she wants to muster up courage, the figure of the Seventh Prince appears in her mind, and she becomes hesitant again, suffering from gains and losses.

Well, now it's all over.

She can finally be completely freed!

Gu Yao breathed a long sigh of relief.

Suddenly, there was a commotion ahead, as if it was a fight.

Gu Yao frowned and walked towards the source of the noise.

I saw that the onlookers in front of me gathered more and more, and their faces were angry and unwilling.

"Who are you? Dare to use force here in public! “

"Don't think you can do whatever you want with money!"

“......“

The people were excited, and they were all accusing each other of wrongdoing, and they reprimanded each other.

Gu Yao frowned when she saw this scene.

Who are these people, and why are they so arrogant?

"Be quiet."

A majestic voice rang out.

When everyone heard this, they were silent, and their eyes looked at the comer.

A burly middle-aged man, wearing a purple official uniform, with a solemn face.

Everyone saluted the middle-aged man.

"You are all ordinary people, and the official also knows that you feel sorry for the old and young in your family, and you can't bear to let them suffer, but this matter is very important, if it is not handled well, it will cause a tragedy!" The middle-aged man looked at everyone.

Everyone was stunned and exchanged glances.

"Your Excellency, do you mean ......?" a middle-aged woman asked tremblingly.

"That's right! You are all ordinary people, and you should not be bewitched by those people and do things that harm the interests of the people! “

The middle-aged man said sternly.

"What do you mean, sir?"

"We don't understand!"

“......“

Everyone shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know.

"This official was ordered to investigate this matter today, do you know who sent someone to do it?" The middle-aged man said with a solemn face.

The crowd shook their heads.

The middle-aged man looked at these people's blank eyes and suddenly sighed.

I'm afraid these people really don't know the truth!

"This matter is very wide-ranging, and it is not for us ordinary people to know. My lord, you should investigate this matter as soon as possible and give justice to our people! “

"That's right! We don't want to let them bully, if this continues, how will the people live! “

“......“

Everyone seconded the motion.

"Okay, since you all trust this official so much, this official will definitely handle this case impartially and give everyone justice!" The middle-aged man clapped the board.

Gu Yao stood not far away, hearing their words clearly.

It seems that there is indeed a conspiracy hidden here!

No matter who it is, as long as she dares to hurt her relatives and friends she cares about, she will definitely take revenge!

However, the matter needs to be considered in the long term.

After the middle-aged man calmed everyone down, he looked at Gu Yao.

"Girl, this official wants to ask, does the girl know this person?"

He took out a portrait and handed it to Gu Yao.

Gu Yao glanced at the person on the portrait and shook his head.

"I don't know."

"Girl, this matter is very important, if the girl is interested, she can stay in the capital." The middle-aged man looked at her sincerely.

"My lord, this matter has passed, I don't want to mention it again, I hope that my lord can help, investigate this matter clearly, and give us justice."

Gu Yao shook his head.

"This girl, if you stay, you can find the real murderer!" The middle-aged man looked at Gu Yao with a solemn expression.

"I won't stay, I appreciate the kindness of my lord."

"Girl, this is your portrait, if you have any questions, or any clues, you can go to the yamen to find me at any time!" The middle-aged man took out a name card from his sleeve robe and handed it to Gu Yao.

"Thank you, sir!"

Gu Yao accepted the name sticker and thanked the middle-aged man with a fist.

"The girl is polite, farewell!" The middle-aged man thanked him, turned around and walked a few steps, and then stopped.

"I don't know the girl's name?"

When Gu Yao heard this, she raised her eyes to look at him and chuckled, "Under Gu Yao." “

"Miss Gu, this is the name of the palace, if you have any needs, you can go to the yamen to find me, my name is Liu Ming, I am the local prefect, you can also call me Lord Liu."

Liu Ming handed Gu Yao a jade pendant, and then left.

Gu Yao looked at the jade pendant in his hand, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes were deep.

It seems that this matter has to be discussed in the long run!

......

Gu Yao returned to the inn and explained her affairs to Gu Wan'er briefly.

"Sister, I always feel that this matter is strange!"

"Don't think about it, it's all over, don't worry about it anymore, you take a rest first, I'll do dinner!"

Gu Wan'er told Gu Yao.

"Sister, you're too hard, this kind of rough work, let's leave it to someone else to do!" Gu Yao said with a distressed face.

"Silly girl, this kind of rough work, my sister can do it alone!" Gu Wan'er smiled slightly.

"Sister, don't be reckless, I know you can't do this alone, I've already written to my father and mother, let them come back quickly." Gu Yao held Gu Wan'er's hand and said softly.

"No need, Daddy and Niang, they still have a lot of things to do, just let them accompany you more!" Gu Wan'er shook her head.

"Sister, let me take care of you!" Gu Yao said coquettishly.

"You! Well, then it's up to you to take care of your sister! Gu Wan'er rubbed Gu Yao's hair dotingly.

Gu Yao grinned, smiling like a flower.

"You're a little lazy pig, I'll get you something to eat." Gu Wan'er said helplessly.

"Good!" Gu Yao nodded obediently.

"Sister, you wait, I'll be back soon!"

"Hmm." Gu Wan'er chuckled and responded.

Gu Yao walked out of the room and came to the kitchen, ready to cook for Gu Wan'er.

This time, she learned wisely, and instead of cooking, she made some porridge, steamed buns, buns, and eggs.

Although she didn't know what food Gu Wan'er liked, she still made it according to her preferences.

After doing all this, it was already noon.

Gu Yao stretched and was about to rest when he heard a knock on the door outside.

Gu Yao was puzzled, who could it be at this time?

Could it be Gu Wan'er?

"Come in."

"Knock knock~"

The door was pushed open, and a shadow slowly walked in.

Gu Yao saw the person who came clearly and was stunned.

The person who came was a beautiful girl, dressed in pink, and her jet-black hair was combed into a ponytail and tied high.

Exquisite facial features, a pair of smart eyes like autumn water, a small nose straight, cherry-like red lips lightly opened, revealing white teeth like jade.

Gu Yao was stunned for a moment, and a word flashed in his mind: Heavenly Immortal.

This girl is definitely worthy of the word fairy!

She was......

Seeing Gu Yao's stunned appearance, the girl smiled slightly, and slowly came to the table and sat down.

"You, you are?"

Gu Yao came back to her senses and looked at her in confusion.

"I'm Gu Wan'er, you can call me Wan'er." The girl smiled.

"Gu Wan'er? Wan'er girl? Gu Yao frowned, puzzled.

"Who are you?" Seeing Gu Yao's puzzled appearance, the girl asked curiously.

"Oh, I'm the eldest daughter of the Gu family, named Gu Yao."

"So that's the case, you are the eldest lady of the Gu family!"

Gu Wan'er nodded, then looked at Gu Yao and asked, "Miss Gu, I don't know what you are looking for me?" “

"Miss Wan'er, I have something to ask you for help." Gu Yao opened his mouth and said.

"Oh?"

Gu Wan'er raised her eyebrows, looking like she was listening.

"That's the case, I heard that a few days ago, there were two groups of reckless people who made trouble in the county government, is that so?" Gu Yao asked.

"That's right, exactly." Gu Wan'er chuckled and said, "This matter has been investigated as early as when I knew about it, but it has been fruitless. “

"Miss Wan'er, how did you find these reckless people?" Gu Yao asked curiously.

"It's a long story, let's talk while we eat." Gu Wan'er pointed to the food on the table and said with a smile: "You are pregnant now, eat more meat and supplement vitamins, it is beneficial to the fetus." “

"Well, thank you."

"You're welcome."

......

For lunch, the two of them ate extremely happily.

After the meal, Gu Yao chatted with Gu Wan'er for a long time, and the two separated.

After Gu Wan'er left, Gu Yao immediately wrote a letter to her mother.

The letter talked about Gu Wan'er's life experience and what happened to her.

"Miss Wan'er, I hope you can return to Beijing as soon as possible, because I am worried that trouble will come to my door."

"Okay, I'll try to go back as soon as possible, and I won't worry you." Gu Wan'er replied with a letter.

Gu Yao looked at the letter and smiled slightly.

Miss Wan'er is so kind!

She will definitely return to Beijing as soon as possible!

......

Capital

Prime Minister's Office

Prime Minister's Mansion, Prime Minister's Mansion.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, a young girl in a cyan dress was practicing martial arts in the courtyard.

She has a slender figure, a delicate face, a pair of clear and bright eyes, and skin like snow, which can be broken by blowing.
