Gu Jiuqing originally thought that there would be a conflict between them.

But she underestimated Cang Liyuan's influence, and after they killed so many puppet guards, they were invited in by the woman as a distinguished guest.

The woman's name is Xiyin, just as Gu Jiuqing expected, she is really a demon, but she is a half-demon.

Xiyin's mother is the princess of Xiliang, and her father is unknown, but there is no doubt about the demon clan.

And in Xiliang, a brick thrown out, nine princesses can be killed out of ten people.

Their status is not as noble as that of other countries, and the only value of existence is to give birth to offspring, and it is best to give birth to offspring with pure blood.

It is conceivable how Xiyin grew up with difficulty in such an environment.

Knowing this information, Gu Jiuqing really felt that she would hate the two clans, and it was understandable!

Moreover, for the indiscriminate dislike between the two races, she is a master of Duanshui!

After the arrangement was made, Xiyin sent many maidservants to serve the two.

These handmaidens are obviously puppets too, but their every move is no different from ordinary people.

Even Gu Jiuqing could hear their breathing and heartbeat, if she hadn't been able to sense the Xuanyu on these people, she would almost really think that these were people!

After the puppets had placed their belongings, they withdrew, and stood respectfully outside the door, ready to obey their orders.

Gu Jiuqing looked around and found that there didn't seem to be any particularly useful information, so he reflexively sat opposite Cang Liyuan.

In front of them, there are some delicate snacks and seasonal melons and fruits.

Gu Jiuqing picked it up and looked at it, and it turned out to be true.

She picked up a piece and tasted it, and it tasted good.

"Is this all done by puppets? The craftsmanship is comparable to that of the imperial kitchen! Gu Jiuqing sighed from the bottom of his heart.

"Xiyin and Meng Xianqing are both geniuses in this regard. The puppets they made can almost be fake. "Cang Liyuan said," This is also the reason why Li Yanhua chose to keep them despite public opinion. ”

"Did it turn out to lure the wolf into the house?" Gu Jiuqing said casually.

"Sort of! However, Li Yanhua is not a good type, and the two of them have suffered a lot under this person. Especially the sound of the song! It's strange that they don't rebel! Cang Liyuan said, and then took a sip of tea.

The next moment, Cang Liyuan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Sensing his abnormality, Gu Jiuqing cast him an inquiring look.

Cang Liyuan shook his head, but put down the teacup and didn't drink it again.

"Li Yanhua is also to blame." The abyss is gone.

For his words, Gu Jiuqing expressed his understanding.

I heard Cang Liyuan say before that the former city lord's family died at the hands of the demon clan.

Therefore, he has an enmity with the demon clan.

And unfortunately, Xiyin is a half-demon, so it's strange that he can get a favor in his hands!

After being tortured for a long time, Xiyin will only resist even more.

"What are you going to do next?" Gu Jiuqing said again, "Do you want to save the former city lord?" ”

"No, I don't save it." Cang Liyuan said without hesitation, "There is no need to worry about this matter, it happens to be the puppet division alliance recently, we can take a look at the excitement in this city." ”

Gu Jiuqing didn't believe that he stayed to watch the excitement, but she didn't say much.

After all, this is in someone's territory, and the partition wall has ears!

The City Lord's Mansion is really very large, and at a glance, I can see lights everywhere, comparable to the inner courtyard of the palace.

The scenery inside is also good, but after nightfall, the mountain breeze is cool.

Cang Liyuan took her everywhere in it, but no one stopped her.

The garden is also full of lanterns.

These lanterns are dotted among the trees, swaying with the night breeze, which is inexplicably a little weird.

The two of them stepped into the garden, crossed a path, and saw a familiar red figure.

This person is none other than Xiyin.

At this time, she did not wear a scarf on her head, and her long silver hair danced lightly in the wind, making her look as if she was about to fly away at any moment.

Hearing their movements, Xiyin turned around and looked at them.

In the dim light, her eyes were exceptionally bright.

With her snow-white skin, it looks a little scary.

At this time, Xiyin spoke.

"You can stay." When she said this, her eyes fell on Gu Jiuqing.

Gu Jiuqing raised his eyebrows in surprise and said with a light smile: "Thank you for your kindness, but you don't have to." ”

"There's no need to rush to refuse, you should think about it." Xiyin retracted his gaze and said lightly, "Here, those Xiliang people can't help you." For you, that's the best place to be. If you fall into their hands, the end will be miserable. Those people are already crazy for the sake of blood! ”

I almost forgot that she also has half of the blood of the Xiliang royal family.

And Xiliang's bloodline respect is really disgusting.

Gu Jiuqing naturally knew this, and naturally understood Xiyin's kindness.

"Thank you, I'll think about it." Gu Jiuqing said.

The coldness on Xiyin's face dissipated a little, and he turned to look at Cang Liyuan and said, "Yunding Hancui is the intention of the king of Hezhen?" ”

"It doesn't fit." Cang Liyuan was also polite, "This king doesn't like it." ”

"The taste of the prince has changed a lot. It's such a good tea, but it's a pity! Xiyin smiled coldly and glanced at Gu Jiuqing, but that glance was extraordinarily meaningful.

These two people, what kind of dumb riddle are they playing!

Gu Jiuqing thought of the strange appearance of Cang Liyuan when he drank tea today, and thought about what was the relationship between him and this tea called "Yunding Hancui".

Cang Liyuan didn't speak, so he listened to Xiyin's sarcastic words: "People's hearts have always been complicated, and getting along with others can't deliver sincerity after all." It's better than these puppets, who never have to worry about their betrayal. Miss Gu, are you right? ”

"Miss Xiyin has a point." Gu Jiuqing said, "But I like to be lively and popular, but I can't get along with puppets." ”

"There will be a time when the excitement will dissipate." As Xi Yin was talking, a man in white came out of the darkness.

He looks like an ordinary person, but he looks handsome, but there is a shallow scar on the side of his face, which reduces his appearance.

It's a pity, it's like a beautiful painting has been scratched, and the beauty of the whole painting has been destroyed.

The man held a fiery red cloak in his hand, and he walked up to Xiyin without squinting and draped the cloak over her.

"It's cold at night, beware of catching a cold." The man said softly.

"I'm not cold." Xiyin said coldly, "Demons are not afraid of cold. ”

"But you're human, too." The man's voice was a little helpless, he raised his hand to tie her cloak, and then bowed slightly to Cang Liyuan and Gu Jiuqing, which was regarded as a greeting.

"This is Xianqing, Meng Xianqing." Xiyin introduced it to Gu Jiuqing, and then said to Meng Xianqing, "You came just in time, I was planning to take two distinguished guests to the Star Picking Tower to have a look." It's better for you to come along! ”

As soon as Xiyin's words fell, Meng Xianqing's eyes overflowed with a smile that could not be concealed.

"Okay!" He nodded, and then stood to the side of Xiyin.

The Star Picking Tower is the tallest building in the City Lord's Mansion.

Gu Jiuqing looked up and saw the tall building full of lanterns at a glance.

With so many lanterns lit at once, and no modern electrical facilities, it can be seen that this is a huge project.

Just thinking about what they didn't have, the group soon came to the star-picking tower.

Standing on it, you can see the city below.

In this dark mountain forest everywhere, only this city, like a pearl in the dark night, is particularly gorgeous and dazzling.

Gu Jiuqing looked into the distance, but suddenly found that something didn't seem quite right in this city.
